Our escorted tours in the Netherlands and Belgium

Amsterdam, a city of bicycles: modern, fun-loving and remarkably free-spirited, yet not without an old-world charm, thanks to its romantic canals which, from the Prinsengracht to the Herengracht, run alongside the historic homes of the merchants of the “Golden Age”; the itinerary then delves even deeper into art and history with the Van Gogh Museum, Dam Square and the Anne Frank House.

North Holland: the true Dutch landscape. Marken, with its delightful little green wooden houses. Volendam, a picturesque fishing village of traditional red and black costumes, home to the Great Dyke. Zaandijk, among the old windmills, clog workshops and traditional houses. Antwerp, a wonderful city of art famous for the Grote Markt, where gleaming gilded statues look down from on high, and for Rubens’ House.

South Holland stretches from scenic The Hague, overlooking the North Sea, to the famous blue porcelain and the little canal-side houses of Delft.

Brussels (Belgium), the capital, a cultured, refined and cosmopolitan city (Grand-Place, Manneken-Pis, Atomium), seat of the European Union and home of Art Nouveau in its Liberty style. Flanders: Bruges, the timeless city, and Ghent: culture and canals. Wallonia: a gourmet region, welcoming and steeped in history. Tournai, the city of five bell towers, Namur and Dinant, the city of the saxophone.
